Double Chocolate Chip Bread

nonstick cooking spray

½ cup unsalted butter(softened)

½ cup granulated sugar

¼ cup light brown sugar(packed)

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 large eggs

½ cup sour cream

¼ cup milk

1 ¼ cups all purpose flour

½ cup cocoa powder

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

1 cup chocolate chips(scant, about 4 oz. per cup)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

In large mixing bowl, use a mixer to cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed until smooth and combined, 1-2 minutes. Add the eggs and beat for a minute longer, until the mixture is pale and fluffy. Add the sour cream and milk. Continue to beat on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, until fully incorporated.

Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl. Beat the mixture on medium-low speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula, until just combined. Do not over-mix.

Fold in the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Bake the bread on middle rack of oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55-65 minutes.

Check to see that bread is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the bread to rest in the pan for 10 minutes, then release the bread from the pan onto a cooling rack. Allow to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving. Leftover bread may be stored in a large zip-top bag at room temperature for 1 day, in the refrigerator for 4 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Bloom Your Cocoa Powder 🍫
Whisk cocoa powder with hot water or melted butter before adding to the batter to intensify chocolate flavor and eliminate any bitter, raw taste.
Room Temperature Ingredients 🌡️
Bring eggs, sour cream, and milk to room temperature before mixing to ensure proper emulsification and a tender, moist crumb structure.
Toast Your Chocolate Chips 🔥
Lightly toast half your chocolate chips in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before folding in to deepen their flavor and create complexity alongside the cocoa powder.
Don't Overmix the Batter ✋
Mix dry and wet ingredients until just combined—overmixing develops gluten and creates a dense, tough loaf instead of the tender crumb you want.
Cool Before Slicing ⏱️
Let the bread cool completely in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack for another 30 minutes before slicing to prevent crumbling and ensure clean cuts.
